- | This is an honours thesis course in Interactive Systems. Although a course coordinator will be assigned to the course, the bulk of the course will take place through the interaction between a supervisor and a single student (or group of students). After two organizational meetings in September, the student will work with his/her supervisor directly. The course requires an initial project proposal that will be submitted to and approved by the supervisor and the course coordinator (director). This is, in essence, a contract for the project to follow. The supervisor will evaluate the performance of the student in early January. The format of this evaluation will vary from project to project, but the requirements of this evaluation will be specified in the original project proposal. At the beginning of the course, the course director (coordinator) will establish a date and format for the public presentation of all Interactive System Projects. Normally held between reading week and the third last week of term, this presentation will normally consist of either a short public oral or poster presentation of the project. | + | * Normally restricted to students who have taken 36 credits in computer science |

- | The actual nature of the project will vary from student to student. Projects will involve the design, implementation and evaluation of an interactive system. While theoretical projects are possible, the expectation is that all projects evaluate the implementation with human participants and include an analysis of these results in the presentation and final report. For projects that will involve significant subject testing and performance evaluation, it is expected that a complete draft implementation of the system will be available by January. Projects must deal with systems that interact with a human user. This interaction must be a critical component of the system | + | |
